I'm surprised at the predominance of orange clothing - is it a common winter colour in the US - high visibility wear maybe?

Yes, great for forming a "cross" when a photo op presents itself.

Yes, for hunters. Supposedly so they don't shoot each other, but it doesn't always work...ask Cheney. Then, of course the deer got ahold of the idea. They sit around in their orange parkas and laugh and laugh.

My wife and I tend to buy bright colored winter coats for our kids. Both because the bright colors counter the dreary gray winter weather and also to make them more visible to drivers and hopefully somewhat less likely to be run over.
